Lots of water!! Iguazú Falls
Para Silvia y Nicolas con cariño 🙂
Hey everyone! I´m still amazed with Iguazú falls. The noise still resounds in my ears and it is almost as if I could feel the drops of water in my face. Iguazú falls, the natural boarder between Brasil, Argentina and Paraguay has been one of the most beautiful natural wonders I´ve seen
The trip was done as fast as a lightning. We jumped into a bus that afetr 21 hours left us in Puero Iguazú. Inmediately we were boarding a local bus to the park. We spend the day in the park, and that same afternoon we took another bus back to Buenos Aires. Crazy? probably, but absolutely worth it.
Entering a natural park always makes me happy. The trees, the animals and the smell of nature reminds me how much I enjoy the outdoors. The park is not only there for the falls, but also to preserve the fauna and flora.
To get to La garganta del Diablo (Devil´s throath) you have to get a train or walk something like 4 Km, this including kilometer of catwalks on top of the river! It´s so cool to be able to walk over water!! And it also allows you to get very cose to the fall, just 3 meters!!
When you get to the fall, everything you had in your mind disapears and it is replaced by water.
There is the option of getting on a boat that takes you besides the falls. After looking at some boat getting that close we couldn´t resist the temptation.
Of course being so close you get absolutely soaking wet, thing that didn´t stop me from getting my camera out to take some shots, crazy eh? 😉
After all that excitment we walked on some other catwalks that give you a different perspective of the falls, and allows you to get close to some other incredible falls
It was a wonderful experience and I´m very grateful to have the chance to see this. The only thing, and even the Lonely Planet says it, where is the bunjee jump???

Buen parche en Iguazu…. ese parque parece ser del carajo… varias fuentes me lo confirman. Yo ya estoy en la tierra del consumismo… y queria contarle que ya deje el recibo de la uni en su casa (y por politicas de la uni le toca pagar como nuevo estudiante, la mas cara…. sorry)
Bueno, un abrazo grande, y nos veremos pronto!! saludes a aoifita
